Create vincenty.rs
Description This pull request introduces the Vincenty formula implementation for calculating geodesic distance between two points on the Earth's surface, using the WGS84 ellipsoid model. This formula offers more accuracy than the Haversine formula by accounting for the Earth's ellipsoidal shape, making it suitable for applications requiring precise distance measurements.
Changes made:
Added a new vincenty.rs module to implement the Vincenty algorithm. Updated mod.rs to include pub mod vincenty;. Updated DIRECTORY.md with a link to the new module. The Vincenty formula is an iterative method that is more accurate for long-distance calculations on the Earth’s ellipsoid model. For more details, see Vincenty’s Formula.

Checklist:
- [x] I ran bellow commands using the latest version of rust nightly.
- [x ] I ran
cargo clippy --all -- -D warningsjust before my last commit and fixed any issue that was found. - [x ] I ran
cargo fmtjust before my last commit. - [x ] I ran
cargo testjust before my last commit and all tests passed. - [x ] I added my algorithm to the corresponding
mod.rsfile within its own folder, and in any parent folder(s). - [x ] I added my algorithm to
DIRECTORY.mdwith the correct link. - [ x] I checked
COUNTRIBUTING.mdand my code follows its guidelines.
Please make sure that if there is a test that takes too long to run ( > 300ms), you #[ignore] that or
try to optimize your code or make the test easier to run. We have this rule because we have hundreds of
tests to run; If each one of them took 300ms, we would have to wait for a long time.
